Moldovan rugs are emblematic artisanal works from Moldova, recognized for their rich floral motifs, especially roses. They hold a central place in the aesthetics of Moldovan rugs. A symbol of love, life, and prosperity, the rose brings both a decorative and spiritual dimension to these textile pieces. Traditionally, these rugs were often hung on house walls, where they represented a sign of wealth, family prestige, and cultural heritage.

Dimensions: 143 cm x 205 cm — 4'6'' x 6'7''

Composition: 100 % hand-knotted wool

Provenance: Moldova

The wool used comes mainly from Karakul sheep, renowned for the softness, strength, and quality of its fiber. Hand-spun, it gives the rug a rich, warm, and durable texture.

Moldovan artisans traditionally use natural vegetable dyes, such as madder for reds, indigo for blues, or turmeric for yellows, thereby creating deep, harmonious, and long-lasting colors.

In Moldovan folklore, the rug holds a significant symbolic place. Associated with femininity, home, and family transmission, it was often carefully made by the women of the house and passed down from generation to generation as a precious testament to talent and artistic sense.
